tl;dr -- My family physician has set a weight loss goal of 10lbs in 3 months, by restricting my diet to 1200 calories per day and choosing lower fat foods as much as possible.
In March, my family doctor referred me to see a gynecologist re: my PCOS flareup and I finally saw him yesterday, after a nearly four month wait. One of the things my family doctor wanted me to ask about was starting on metformin; the gynecologist said there is not much point for me to take metformin unless there is an issue with my blood sugar, so he ordered a couple of fasting sugar tests which I did this morning.
Saw my family doctor today and gave her the low-down on everything the gyne and I talked about -- thank god my partner took notes! I had the lab CC: my doctor on the blood sugar results, so when they come in she will review and decide whether or not to start prescribing metformin.
In the meantime, my attempt at weight loss is now doctor-assisted. Given that I plateau'd at 42 lbs lost several months ago, and have been hovering around the 201 - 203 lbs mark since Christmastime, she says that she may just go ahead and prescribe metformin anyway, but she'll wait until she gets the results from the lab before she makes that final decision.
As of now, I'm on a calorie-restricted diet of 1200 calories per day, and our goal is to lose 10 lbs in three months. Bring it on.
